Chelsea fans are demanding the club sign Lyon star Nabil Fekir following his masterclass in Lyon’s 2-1 Champions League win against Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium on Wednesday night.
Chelsea were linked with the France international during the summer with Lyon president admitting he expected Chelsea to make a move for the 25-year-old during the summer.
Fekir will suit Sarriball due to the playmaker’s eagerness to press the ball high up the pitch and his ball-playing abilities.
Fekir recently spoke of his desire to play in the Premier League so he would definitely jump at the offer to play for Chelsea.
The 25-year-old has just 18 months left in his Lyon contract so he is expected to leave Lyon in January or next summer.
Chelsea fans were so impressed with the Fekir’s performance against Manchester City that a fan even suggested selling Willian to make space for Fekir in the squad.
Here are tweets from Chelsea fans urging the club to make a move for the France international in the future:
